           Summary: Building on Windows outside HOME directory fails
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 525+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Misc.
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: bfulgham at gmail.com


OVERVIEW:
Using the results of update-webkit as of 11:30 AM on 2007-11-30 (and various
attempts yesterday) I get a build failure if I attempt to build WebKit outside
of my Cygwin home directory.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1.  Follow installation instructions for build tools from WebKit.org site.
2.  Perform the "svn checkout" in a non-home directory, e.g.:

$ cd /cygdrive/d/Development
$ svn checkout http://svn.webkit.org/repository/webkit/trunk WebKit
... time passes ...

3.  Update PATH to use /cygdrive/d/Development/WebKit/WebKitTools/Scripts
4.  Copy the "WebKitSupportLibrary.zip" to /cygdrive/d/Development/WebKit
5.  Perform an "update-webkit".
6.  Perform a "build-webkit".
7.  Build fails complaining of missing files (e.g,. "wtf/Platform.h") that are
    clearly present in the directory structure, e.g.:

9>GEN_DOMHTMLTextAreaElement.cpp
9>d:\development\WebKit\WebKit\WebKitBuild\Include\JavaScriptCore\config.h(22)
:
 fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'wtf/Platform.h': No such file or
directory
9>GEN_DOMHTMLTableSectionElement.cpp

...

12>Build log was saved at
"file://d:\development\WebKit\WebKit\WebKitBuild\obj\T
estNetscapePlugin\Release\BuildLog.htm"
12>TestNetscapePlugin - 3 error(s), 0 warning(s)
11>d:\development\webkit\webkit\webkittools\drosera\win\DebuggerClient.h(35) :
f
atal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'WebCore/COMPtr.h': No such file or
directory

WORKAROUND:

If I move the source tree to my home directory:  /cygdrive/c/Fulgham/WebKit,
everything builds properly.

bfulgham at bfulgham ~/WebKit
$ pwd
/cygdrive/c/Fulgham/WebKit

PLATFORM:
* Windows XP SP 2
* Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Professional (Service Pack 1).
* Cygwin installation based on the WebKit installer package, updated yesterday
to current versions of everything.

Note:  I am building using Microsoft Platform SDK from 2005 (not the current
2006 version).  I do not believe this is related, though I will be updating
this today.
